Brookfields ‘Ohiti Estate’ Hawke's Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2019 750ML

Fresh passion fruit, gooseberry, melon and lime best describe the 2019 ‘Ohiti Estate’ Sauvignon Blanc. The hot vintage ensured that ripeness was readily achieved, and the wine reflects the season. The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc is a light straw colour with firm alcohol and is made in a dry style. This ‘Ohiti Estate’ Sauvignon Blanc is typically Hawke’s Bay in style with its ripe generous flavours and lingering finish - it is a delight!

Grown at their ‘Ohiti Estate’, the vines are spur pruned and crop at between 8-10 tonnes per hectare. Leaf plucking is practised, and the vine bunches are netted in order to hold the birds back from the grapes as they ripen and sweeten. The soil is free draining due to its stony nature.

Harvest was the 20th March 2019. The ‘Ohiti Estate’ Sauvignon Blanc was tank-fermented at low temperatures i.e. approximately 13 degrees Celsius. The wine was left on its lees to gain mouthfeel and complexity until it was time for stabilization and filtration prior to bottling.

ABV: 13%
